Podcast on the state of our Smart Cities

Want to know how Smart cities are faring in the UK? Have a listen to what happened when our Project Director spoke to the Centre for Cities.

Elli Thomas spoke to Enrico Motta from MK:Smart about how UK cities are using technology to deliver more efficient public services. Elli was also joined by Ben Unsworth from data-driven, decision-making company Socrata, an organisation that helps the public sector improve transparency and citizen services.

As well as highlighting examples of successful projects around the country, the conversation touches on some of the challenges in implementing ‘smart solutions’, such as the need for more investment in infrastructure and concerns over privacy.
